I can't believe it worked! But I took your advice and a) walked away, b) took it down to the art supply store and showed those guys (and we all totally busted out laughing) and they helped me get some more paint colors and gave me advice, and then I c) turned it upside down, d) redid the whole face, and then e) redid half of it again. Don't get me wrong, it's not awesome, but I think she actually looks human! Progress! Thank you!

Tomorrow I'll upload the photos I took and we can all pee in our pants laughing. This is a good one.

YAY!!! So glad you went back to it. Can't wait to see the photos. I love how you describe your emotional reactions to your projects. Makes me feel like I am there with you. Can I be there with you? Could I visit your magical house and make pretty things with you and play with Clover? I guess I'll have to stay here at my job so I can pay for calico and embroidery floss...
